TCF-UK's principal objective is to raise awareness of and funds for the TCF, Pakistan’s leading charity in the field of formal education for underprivileged children.

1 in 10 of the world’s out-of-school primary aged children resides in Pakistan - the second largest number in the world. TCF's network of purpose built and professionally managed high-performing schools are found in areas beyond the reach of state education and where intergenerational cycles of illiteracy and poverty are rife.

TCF was built on the principle that education is a right, not a privilege, and to this day TCF’s core objective remains to address the issues of illiteracy and poverty and to empower women and girls in Pakistan.

Since its inception in 2001, TCF-UK has supported TCF to build 43 schools in Pakistan. In 2016, TCF-UK supported the running of 61 schools benefitting 10,980 impoverished students.
